Dear Sandy,
Franie and Linda and I were all so shocked to hear of Frank's sudden passing. We will miss seeing him. After he retired he enjoyed coming in for our Annual Membership Meetings so he could see all of his co-worker friends.
My thoughts are with you.
Karla,

Dear Sandy,
We are so very sorry to hear about Frank. When I think about you and Frank, my first though is the Christmas cards that we have shared over the years. Then comes the Pontiac cars. I am sure that Frank and his knowledge will be greatly missed by the Pontiac Oakland club. Of course, stories about cats and the love for all the cats that you and Frank have saved over the years.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
